ATMEL based wireless cards

I got the 01-01-2003 release of Knoppix. I have got an "EpoX EWL-C100" (ATMEL/RFMD based Wireless Network PC-Card) and remastered Knoppix with the newest drivers. Everything works quite fine, but if I plug in the card the modules don't load, because it says:
module was built for kernel 2.4.19 this kernel is 2.4.20-xfs: can't load

I also got the sources for kernel 2.4.20 and patched it with xfs-support and the knoppix-patch.

I compiled the drivers again, but the problem is still the same.

Does anybody know how to solve it?

Thanks, seyring

NEW UPDATE!

CROSSING MY FINGERS THIS ONE HAS ATMEL!!

* V3.2-2003-03-23 (small updates)
- new PCMCIA wireless card entries
- wavelan-ng-modules is back (forgot that in the previous release)
- removed some older/unneeded gnome libraries
- kdevelop seems to create KDE applications again after updating
some KDE-packages from unstable.

If someone is able to download and check this before I do, please reply here and let me and others know if it has ATMEL one way or the other.

:cry:

Alas, my pcmcia-Atmel card (502A-D) is not supported in KNOPPIX_V3.2-2003-03-30-EN....

Has anyone yet succeeded in getting these wlan-cards working?

As you can see it is not working...

Has anyone any idea how to fix it? I'm quite a newbie on this, but I'd really like to have it working!

Thanx

This is where it goes wrong. You really need to have the kernel sources available with the Atmel driver stuff. Otherwise, it gets confused and can't find any of the headers. I think that the configuration scripts look in /usr/src/linux by default, and when I've done the build on various other distributions, it has successfully located kernel sources in that location.

It really would be nice if it worked "out of the box" with Knoppix, yes.

Thanks for replying!
I already thought this could be the problem, so I downloaded the kernel-source-2.4.20-xfs and put it in /usr/src/
Then I edited .config and pointed the KERNEL_SRC to this map.
But when I do make install it still shows

Build all (y/n) : n
Kernel Version Running 2.4.20-xfs
Found Kernel Source Directory ()

and later on I still can see some errors during make all that some file or folder is nowhere to be found.......

How can I make these sources to be recognized? Do I have to compile the kernel?

Thanks for helping me making this card work properly!!!
